Shorter wick neck for tealights?


Recommended Posts

Anyone know where I can get HTP41 or LX10 pretabbed wicks with a neck shorter than 6mm? These are the 2 wicks I'd like to use in my tealights but I can only find them with the 6mm necks and I really don't want to have to tab my own. The 6mm necks are too long causing my wicks to fizzle out with about 1/2 the wax remaining.

I have a whole box of LX 10 that I dont know what to use for, didnt think about tealights lol.

Anyway, their website says

"Wick size & type: 2.5" LX-10; sustainer base: 20 mm base x 3 mm neck; Standard 160-degree MP wax coating"

I probably have 500 - 1000 .... not sure lol if you are interested in trying some.
